Both releases are mostly bugfix releases. Unfortunately both are going
to break backwards compatibility for some people.

All modules of XMLUnit for Java now require Java7 as a minimum and the
optional JAXB dependency has been updated to use the Jakarta XML Binding
API. XMLUnit.NET has made ISource disposable which is going to break
custom implementations.

Details for XMLUnit for Java 2.8.0
- ----------------------------------

* changed optional JAXB dependency to use Jakarta XML Binding API PR
  #186 by @endrejeges

* bumped the bytebuddy dependency to 1.10.10 for the AssertJ module in
  the hope it would help with #188 - and change its scope from provided
  to compile time, which should finally fix the issue.

* added a new extractingText method to MultipleNodeAssert to make it
  possible to write AssertJ assertions against the textual content of
  nodes more easily.

  Issue #192 and PR #193 by @keesvandieren

* changed the minimum Java version required from Java 6 to Java 7 for
  all modules (it has already been Java 7 for the AssertJ module
  before).

* DefaultNodeMatcher with multiple ElementSelectors could fail to find
  the best matches as the order of ElementSelectors should select them.
  #197

* Input builder now supports java.nio.file.Path
  #196

* It is now possible to specify a custom TransformerFactory for
  DefaultComparisonFormatter.
  #195

Details for XMLUnit.NET 2.9.0
- -----------------------------

* ISource now extends IDisposable to allow releasing unmanaged resources
  used when building sources from files or URIs.

  This change is backwards incompatible if you are providing ISource
  implementations of your own.

  #33

* DefaultNodeMatcher with multiple ElementSelectors could fail to find
  the best matches as the order of ElementSelectors should select them.
